    Overture

    Heaven on Their Minds


-----------------------
Dm Dm F G
Judas: My mind is cleared now - at last all too well
------ F G Dm
I can see where we all soon will be
Dm F G
If you strip away the myth from the man
F G Dm
You will see where we all soon will be
Dm
Jesus !
Dm
You've started to believe
Em
The things they say of you
F
You really do believe
G Dm
This talk of God is true

And all the good you've done
Will soon get swept away
You've begun to matter more
Then the things you say

Dm F
Listen Jesus I don't like what I see
Dm G
All I ask is that you listen to me
Bb C F
And remember - I've been your right hand man all along
Dm
You have set them all on fire
Bb F
They think they've found the new Messiah
D/A A Bb
Dm
And they'll hurt you when they find they're wrong


I remember when this whole thing began
No talk of God then - we called you a man
And beleive me - my admiration for you hasn't died
But every word you said today
Gets twisted round some other way
And they'll hurt you if they'll think you've lied

Bb F Gm Dm
Nazareth your famous son should have stayed a great
unknown
Gm Dm/A
Like his ofther carving wood
A Dm
He'd have made good!
Tables, chairs and oaken chests should have suited
Jesue best
He'd have caused nobody's harm
No one alarm!


I remember when this whole thing began
No talk of God then - we called you a man
And beleive me - my admiration for you hasn't died
But every word you said today
Gets twisted round some other way
And they'll hurt you if they'll think you've lied

Nazareth your famous son should have stayed a great
unknown ...

Listen Jesus to the warning I give,
Please remember that I want us to live
But it's sad to see our chances weakened with ev'ry,
ev'ry hour
All your followers are blind,
Too much heaven on their minds
Bb
It was beautiful but now it's sour,
Dm Bbmaj7 Repeat & Fade
Yes it's all gone so sour ...


    What's the Buzz


--------------- Bethany, Friday night

Bbm
Apostles: What's the buzz ? Tell me what's happening ?
--------- Eb major!
What's the buzz ? Tell me what's happening ?

Jesus: Why should you want to know ?
------ Don't you mind about the future,
Don't you try to think ahead
Save tomorrow for tomorrow,
Think about today instead

Apostles: What's the buzz ? Tell me what's happening ?
---------
Jesus: I could give you facts and figures -
------ I could give you plans and forecasts
Even tell you where I'm going -

Apostles: When do we ride into Jerusalem ?
---------
Jesus: Why should you want to know ?
------ Why are you obsessed with fighting
Times and fates you can't defy ?
If you knew the path we're riding
You'd understand it less than I !

Apostles: What's the buzz ? Tell me what's happening ?
---------
Mary M. : Let me try to cool down your face a bit ...
---------
Jesus: That feels nice, so nice ...
------ Mary that is good - while you prattle through your supper
-
Where and when and who and how
She alone has tried to give me
What I need right here and now !

Apostles: What's the buzz ? Tell me what's happening ?
---------

    Strange Thing Mystifying


--------------------------
G G7 C Cm
Judas: It seems to me a strange thing mystifying
------ G C Cm G
That a man like you can waste his time on women of her
kind !
Yes I can understand that she amuses,
But to let her stroke you, kiss your hair is hardly in
your line .

C D G It's not that I
object to her profession C G
C G
But she doesn't fit in well with what you teach and say
It doesn't help us if you're inconsistent
They only need a small excuse to put us all away .

( F C G It's not that
I object to her profession
F C F C
But she doesn't fit in well with what you teach and say
F C G
It doesn't help us if you're inconsistent
F C F G
They only need a small excuse to put us all away )

Jesus: Who are you to criticise her ?------ Who are you to
despise her ? Leave her, Leave her, let her be now
Leave her, Leave her, she's with me now
If you slate is clean - then you can throw stones
If you slate is not - then leave leave her alone

I'm amazed that man like you can be so shallow, thick and
slow
There's not a man among you who knows or cares if I come or
go

All (save Judas): No you're wrong ! You're very wrong !
----------------- How can you say that ?

Jesus: Not one - not one of you !
------

Jesus: Surely you're not saying we have the resources
------ To save the poor from their lot ?
There will be poor always, pathetic'lly struggling -
Look at the good things you've got !
Think ! While you still have me
Move ! While you still see me
You'll be lost, you'll be so sorry when I'm gone

Mary M. : Sleep and I shall soothe you, calm you and anoit you

They seemed to hate this man -

And leaving me the blame

He scares me so !
I want him so,
I love him so ...

    Damned For All Time

I really didn't come here of my own accord
Just don't say I'm
Damned for all time

Just don't say I'm
Damned for all time

Just don't say I'm
Damned for all time

Bbm Eb major!
I'd wanna know I'd wanna know my God
Bbm Eb ...
I'd wanna see I'd wanna see my God

Why I should die ?
Would I be more noticed than I ever was before ?
Would the things I've said and done matter any more ?
I'd have to know I'd have to know my lord
I'd have to see I'd have to see my lord
But if I die what will be my reward ?
I'd have to know I'd have to know my lord
Why I should die ?
Can't you show me now that I wouldn't be killed in
vain ?
Show me just a little your omnipresent brain
Show me there's a reason for your wanting me to die
You're far to keen on where and how and not so hot oh
why
Alright I'll die !
Just watch me die !
See how I die !

Then I was inspired
Now I'm sad and tired
After all I've tried for three years seems like ninety why
then am I
Scared to finish what I started, what you started - I
didn't start it
God thy will is hard
But you hold every card
I will drink your cup of poison nail me to the cross and
break me,
Bleed me, beat me, kill me, take me now - before I change
my mind !..

We are know that you are knews - but are you king ?

King of the Jews ?


Jesus: That's what you say

Pilate: What do you mean by that ?
------- That is not an answer
You're deep in trouble, friend -
Someone Christ - King of the Jews
How can someone in your state be so cool about your
fate
An amazing thing - this silent king
Since you come from Galilea then need not come to me
You're Herod's race ! You're Herod's case !

Crowd: Hosanna Hey Sanna Sanna Sanna Ho
------ Sanna Hey Sanna Ho Sanna
Hey JC, JC please explain to me ?
You had everything where is it now ?

Oh what a pity if it's all a lie
Still I'm sure that you can rock the cynics if you try

So you are the Christ you're the great Jesus Christ
Prove to me that you're no fool - walk across my swimming
pool
If you do that for me I'll let you go free
Come on, King of the Jews !

I only ask things I'd ask any superstar
What is it that you have got that puts you where you are

I'm waiting yes I'm a captive fan
I'm dying to be shown that you are not just any man

So if you are the Christ yes the great Jesus Christ
Feed my household with this bread, you can do it - on you
head !
Or has somthing gone wrong ? Why do you take so long ?
Come on, King of the Jews !

Hey ! Aren't you scared of me, Christ ? Mr. Wonderful
Christ !
You're a joke, you're not the lord! You're nothing but a
fraud
Take him away - his got nothing to say
Get out you, King of the Jews ! Get out of my life !

    Judas' Death


------------

Judas: My God ! I saw him - he looked three-quaters dead !
------ And he was so bad I had to turn my head
You beat him so hard that he was bent and lame
And I know who everybody's gonna blame
I don't believe he knows I acted for our good
I'd save to him all this suffering if I could
Don't believe... our good... save him... if I could...
Fm C Fm
Priest 3: Cut the confessions forget the excuses
--------- Ab Bb Eb Ab
I don't understand why you're filled with remorse
All that you've said has come true with a vengeance
The mob turned against him - you backed the right
horse

Caiaphas: What you have done will be saving of Israel
--------- You'll be remember'd forever for this
And not only that you've been paid for your efforts
Pretty good vages for one little kiss

Judas: Christ ! I know you can hear me
------ But I only did what you wanted me too
Christ ! I'd sell out the nation
For I have been saddled with the murder of you
I have been spattled with innocent blood,
I shall be dragged through the slime and the mud.
I have been spattled with innocent blood,
I shall be dragged through the
slime and the slime and the slime and the mud.

I don't know how to love him
I don't know why he moves me
He's a man - he's just a man
He is not a King - he is just the same
